Autoimmune Thrombocytopenia Complicated by EDTA- and/or Citrate-Dependent Pseudothrombocytopenia
BACKGROUND Pseudothrombocytopenia (PTCP) is a well-known phenomenon. However, confusion may occur due to unusual characteristics. CASE REPORTS Two patients with autoimmune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and long-lasting PTCP are described. Initially, only the diagnosis of ITP was confirmed. During observation, discrepancies were recognized between clinical findings and platelet counts. Re-examination...

متن کاملNeonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia complicated by maternal autoimmune thrombocytopenia.
Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia should be suspected in any thrombocytopenic infant born to a healthy non-thrombocytopenic mother. Nevertheless, the condition occurs in only 1 or 2/10 000 births.' More often transient neonatal immune thrombocytopenia results from maternal idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. We report the coexistence of alloimmunisation and autoimmunisation against platelet...
متن کامل48, XXYY syndrome associated with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)-dependent pseudothrombocytopenia.
A 56-yr-old man with hypogonadism, gynecomastia, and mental retardation was evaluated for chromosome constitution and thrombocytopenia. Chromosomal analysis demonstrated the mosaicism of 48, XXYY and 47, XXY in the peripheral lymphocytes. Twenty out of twenty-five cells were 48, XXYY karyotype and the remaining five were 47, XXY karyotype. Thrombocytopenia was the EDTA-dependent pseudothrombocy...
متن کاملEDTA-dependent Pseudothrombocytopenia Confirmed by Supplementation of Kanamycin; A Case Report
EDTA-dependent pseudothrombocytopenia (PTCP) is the phenomenon of a spurious low platelet count due to EDTA-induced aggregation of platelets. Since the failure to recognize EDTA-dependent PTCP may result in incorrect diagnosis and inappropriate treatment, the recognition of this phenomenon is very important. We report an insidious case of EDTA-dependent PTCP confirmed by supplementation of kana...
